I went outside yesterday afternoon to take pictures of a butterfly that had been feeding on my Lantana. In the process of waiting for it to land I could see something moving on the bush and took a closer look. Which I thought was a Walking Stick, but turned out to be a Praying Mantis. So I began taking pictures of it. I was excited about capturing it. He was moving sort of fast, so I kept snapping, and then I saw a fly...

I couldn't get over what I had captured with my camera! I have never witnessed this with my eyes before.

The photos are not too clear, I guess snapping away, and his fast movement, I wasn't thinking or having time to focus. I still love what I captured!

I know there are several places needing rain at this moment, and I pray that y'all get it. We have gotten so much in the last few weeks. I love rain, and sleep so well at night with a nice thunderstorm, but this is a little much. It's looking grim outside as I'm writing this. We have a chance of rain again tonight.
